The foreign ministers of the three countries also supported India and Brazil's "endeavour to occupy permanent seats" in the Security Council.
External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar and his counterparts from Brazil and South Africa met for the 11th IBSA Trilateral Ministerial Commission here on Saturday and expressed their frustration "with the paralysis" observed at the Inter-Governmental Negotiations on UN Security Council reform.
They renewed their commitment to work for the expansion of the Council to include representation from developing economies of Africa, Asia and Latin America.
In a statement issued after the meeting, the ministers stressed that the time has come to move towards a result-oriented process and urged the redoubling of efforts to achieve concrete outcomes within a fixed time frame through the commencement of text-based negotiations.
